Loraine placed a glass of water on the table for it to cool down. For convenience, she poured the pills onto her
palm and handed them to
Marco’s mouth.
Marco lowered his eyes, pressed his lips against Loraine’s hand, and slowly extended his tongue on her palm.
His breath was Like a hot, humid summer day, enveloping her senses and igniting a sensation in her skin.
His tongue suddenly rolled quickly and vehemently. Loraine was so startled that she pulled her hand away. Her
cheeks were rosy, and her breathing was shallow. She gave him a sour look.

“Marco!”
Marco had taken in all of the pills. He pointed at the glass while grinning innocently at Loraine.
Loraine held back her rage and helped him drink up the water.
This time, Marco drank hurriedly. A few drops of water trickled from the corner of his lips as his Adam's apple
rolled fast.
Loraine couldn't place what she was feeling, but it was a sensation she was all too familiar with. She gulped.
Realizing what she was doing, Loraine coughed and said, “You have taken the medicine. You should now go to
bed early.”

She got up and quickly left without giving Marco a chance to respond
Marco touched his Lips, lost in thought.
Loraine left Marco's ward and headed to Rowan’s ward.
Rowan waking up so soon startled Loraine, who quickly forgot her weird feelings.
She was eager to enter the ward. She could hear Rowan berating Hubert as she drew near.

“Why did you let Lorrie know that | was hurt? How could you allow her to accompany you to such a dangerous
place?”
Hubert bowed and said, “Sir, I'm sorry. I'm to blame. I'm ready to take the punishment .”
Coming to a stop, Loraine purposefully knocked on the door
Rowan looked up and saw her coming in. His facial expression immediately softened and he said, “Lorrie.”
“Uncle, Hubert is right. This rescue operation proceeded smoothly. The smugglers were also apprehended.”
She winked at Hubert.
Rowan sighed and said, “It’s more complicated than you think. They not only brought weapons into the country
but also smuggled and sold significant amounts of them. Someone behind the scenes must be assisting them.”
